Ovarian sex cord-stromal tumors are relatively infrequent neoplasms that account for approximately 8% of all primary ovarian neoplasm. Sex cord-stromal tumors of the ovary include granulosa cell tumors, fibrothecomas, Sertoli-Leydigcell tumors, steroid cell tumors, and sclerosing stromal tumors (SST). Sclerosing stromal tumors account for 2% to 6% of ovarian stromal tumors. Despite the rarity o...

Sertoli cell tumors of the testis are extremely rare tumors with a heterogeneous pathology. Three histological variants have been described: Sertoli cell tumor not otherwise specified (NOS), large cell calcifying sertoli cell tumor and the Sclerosing Sertoli cell tumor. The sclerosing Sertoli cell tumor described herein is associated with prominent stromal sclerosis. They present as painless...

Sclerosing stromal tumor (SST) is an extremely rare and distinctive sex cord stromal tumor which occurs predominantly in the second and third decades of life. We report a case of a 32-year-old woman who developed a sclerosing stromal tumor of ovary and presented with irregular menstruation and pelvic pain. Her hormonal status was normal but CA-125 was raised. She was suspected to have a maligna...

Calcifying fibrous tumor (CFT) is a rare mesenchymal tumor, affecting children and young adults with a predilection for the soft tissue and the abdominal cavity. CFT of the tubular gastrointestinal tract is very rare with less than 20 cases of gastric CFTs reported in English literature. This benign hypocellular fibrosclerotic calcifying lesion can resemble other spindle cell tumors particularl...

Sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary is a rare, benign ovarian tumor, seen primarily in young women. We report a 3-year-old girl who presented with a palpable lower abdominal mass. Computed Tomography (CT) study revealed a huge pelvic mass with an enhancement pattern typical of ovarian sclerosing stromal tumor. The diagnosis was confirmed by pathology examination of the surgically resected tum...

Sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary is a rare, benign, sex cord stromal tumor occurring predominantly in younger women in the 2nd and 3rd decades of life. It typically presents unilaterally with only 2 previously reported cases of bilateral presentation. Common clinical presentations include pelvic or abdominal pain, a mass, or menstrual changes. Although occasionally presenting with hormonal...

A rare case of benign ovarian stromal cell tumor during pregnancy is presented. Because of a rapidly growing solid ovarian mass, 6 x 7 cm in diameter, a 21-year-old woman at 14 weeks of gestation was explored via laparotomy. Histopathological diagnosis was sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary. She had no complaint of menstrual irregularities before pregnancy and there was no clinical or hormon...

Sclerosing stromal tumor (SST) is an extremely rare ovarian sex cord-stromal tumor with distinctive pathological features and benign nature. Awareness of such entity is crucial because of its histopathologic similarity with other neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions of the ovary. In this report, a 29-year-old woman was presented with menstrual irregularities and pelvic pain. She underwent unil...
